Ability scores usually don’t eat up much time. Most players grasp the concept easily. Higher numbers are better. Class X relies on ability Y. Class and race are weighed and measured. Even if you know exactly which class and race combination you want you have to dig through and pile all that...

Elfcrusher, It’s not satire. I do try to make it humorous though. I am almost always the DM. So character creation is kinda dull from my side. I love 5e but I am always restlessly seeking a better game. One that is bigger, faster and stronger. Sometimes it’s just a matter of my perception and...

I want faster character creation. Also, I’m a monster. I have wanted faster character creation for years now. I’ve been trying to find the right words because, I figured out “why” I want it. I want to kill characters. That was a metric for me growing up. Good characters survived bad characters...

Do you want to be cool? Be a sorcerer. I’ve seen wizards. They play almost exactly the same at higher level as they do at low. Sorcerers change more I think. At low levels sorcery points might be few, they add versatility but at high levels the almost unused 1st and 2nd level spell slots get...

Like Saruman. The birds of the air are my eyes. My mind is metal and gears. My voice is honey. My words are wise. As villains go he’s one of my favorite. (Christopher Lee played him and that was awesome.) He started out good fighting against Sauron but he was corrupted. He joined and even...

Sadras, you should be proud you turned a dice disaster into a dynamic situation filled with emotional impact.

Moko? Magic tattoos?

GlassJaw Wow I mis-worded nerves of steel. It was late here when I wrote those. I was inspired by Little John in Robin Hood when I came up with Derision. In that case he was applying it to Bull one of the bandits of Sherwood but it is something that pops up in storytelling.

I’m sorry I haven’t been helpful. I will try to suspend my bias and help. I will try. Ok, something to boost fighters in the area of exploration and or social encounters. Group leader: add half proficiency bonus to an ally’s roll on an action you have just attempted. E.g. you climb over a wall...

I need no identity. I need no Mearls either. I wonder if the player you have might be a little bit selfish? I have a player that is/was. I will fill you in. Player built a Monk. He had a few good stats but... put a weak stat in strength. Didn’t like the fact that he didn’t have enough good...

The fighter class is fine. The player built a character that is dysfunctional for your campaign or perhaps just for this session. If you have a campaign about courtly intrigue dumping charisma is a bad idea. If you have an under dark campaign planned having a character designed as a horseman...

he puts the laughter in slaughter.

Parmandur, I don’t have enough experience DM’ing for the class to say. Only have had 3 Barbarians that I’ve run games for. One session with a new campaign. One that died before level 2 and one multi-classed character that emphasizes the other class. I can say they work okay. I can’t say I would...

Perhaps it’s my skewed perception from the DM side of things but...the Barbarian’s ability to rage feels off somehow. It works fine, I guess. I don’t feel like it’s too strong or too weak. It just feels kind of, I don’t know.know, wrong. Uses per day and duration haven’t come up yet. I like...

“I found that bloodsucker down by the river.” Crobot I always pictured it as a chimera of sorts. Semi-reptilian with spines large eyes and possibly flight or gliding. Or The beast is sighted repeatedly in the vicinity of livestock killings. But the real perpetrators are blood sucking larvae...

I see a lot of cantrips used at my table. A lot. There is very little difference between a crossbow bolt and fire bolt. I like cantrips and I hate them. They provide a zero cost “magic effect” that scales. This does some things that I don’t like. 1) Ridiculously powerful classes called...

It is absurd. It’s based on “The Indian Rope Trick”. Like many of the earliest D&D stuff it was just grabbed and put in like a madman’s stew.

Brb going to learn statistics.
